The SDG 1

My Steinway,

Discover the SDG1, an exceptional flat-top steel-string instrument meticulously crafted through years of design refinement. Unlike any other in my collection, the SDG1 has undergone numerous iterations to achieve its current state. Its unique voice is characterized by a piano-like balance, depth, and a subtle growl that sets it apart. The journey to perfecting this instrument was a quest for tonal equilibrium, avoiding the pitfalls of sounding overly sterile or controlled. It wasn’t until around 2017 that I unlocked the ideal combination of bracing pattern, air volume, and voicing approach, resulting in an instrument that not only boasts impeccable balance but also possesses an unmistakable and captivating tone. Explore the harmonious fusion of precision and character in the SDG1.
